这项前瞻性研究调查了四种创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD) 症状群（过度警觉、重新体验、麻木和回避）对遭受亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 的女性一年以上再次虐待的影响。协变量包括 IPV 的严重程度、儿童暴力史以及虐待关系的特征。尽管在随后再次滥用的女性中，兴奋过度和麻木症状在基线时都较高，但在控制协变量后，只有麻木症状增加了重新滥用的几率。更严重的 IPV 和更短的关系持续时间也增加了重复虐待的风险。结果表明，需要解决 PTSD 的具体症状，尤其是麻木症状，以提高寻求 IPV 服务的女性的安全。
This prospective study examines the impact of four posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom clusters (hyperarousal, reexperiencing, numbing, and avoidance) on reabuse over 1 year among women exposed to intimate partner violence (IPV). The covariates include severity of IPV, a history of childhood violence, and characteristics of the abusive relationship. Although both hyperarousal and numbing symptoms were higher at baseline among women subsequently reabused, only numbing symptoms increased the odds of reabuse after controlling for the covariates. Greater IPV severity and shorter relationship duration also increased the risk of reabuse. Results indicate that specific symptoms of PTSD, especially numbing, need to be addressed to increase the safety of women seeking services for IPV.
